Southern Oregon Miner, Thursday, August 9, 1945 ell Jbr Àdanol J°H n H erseq w *u T H E STORY T H IS F A R . The A m eri­ cas troops arrived In Adano, with M ajor Joppolo. the Amgot officer la charge. Sergeant Rorth eras In charge of securi­ ty. The M ajor was determined to hold the conddence of the people and to re­ place their hell stolen by the Nasls. De­ spite orders Issued by General M arvin, barring carts from the city, Joppolo re­ called the order, to perm it food and w a­ ter to enter the city. Lord Runcln, high British official on the Amgot, approved of Joppolo** plans. The M ajor found out that the American generosity was re­ sponsible for a troublesome blach m a r­ ket. To stop this condition hr placed a ceiling on all prices. He also barred troops from the city. going to be an attack. All he would not believe was that the Germans would succeed. Mayor Nasta said: "The Ameri­ cans will not stop it. The Ameri­ cans may be friendly, but they are not good fighters.” Margherita, the formidable wife of Craxi. said with a threatening look: "L ia r!” But Mayor Nasta said: 'This is not my opinion. This is the opinion of the son of Afronti, the noisy cart- man. You know the boy. You know that he is honest. He says that the Americans are timid in battle. He says that our own troops could even beat the Americans.” Mercurio Salvatore, the crier, was reduced to saying: “I do not be­ lieve it.” Mayor Nasta said: “ It is true. This boy fought in Tunisia. He says that at the place called El Guettar the Americans did not press their attack, he says that they behaved like frightened men and were de­ feated. The British can fight, per­ haps. but not the Americans.” The formidable Margherita said: “ It is a dirty lie," but there was no anger in her voice, it was nearly drained of conviction. This man Nasta was a very per­ suasive man. He had persuaded himself into office, and he had per­ suaded the people into fear of him, and now it was easy for him to per­ suade them to mistrust the Ameri­ cans.
